Great..went wonderfully with a stuffed / rolled pork roast tho made some changes and it was still delicious. Since I read the recipe 1 hour before eating, I "plumped " the raisins in the microwave with the rum. Halved the recipe using 3 1/2 cortlands, which I did not peel and a splash of maple syrup instead of sugar. Used 1/2 remainder of ingredients ...a great accompaniment! Thanks JennMI!

I did this at work (I'm a cook at a retirement center), was well recieved. I think this might be really good adapted as a pie filling too.
